There's a tour by a guide (Spanish only) who will provide a history of this old pharmacy, as well as the historical context of the surrounding area. At the end of the tour, you'll be led into a room that sells glass crafts made by artists.

Best pharmacology museum in the world with the most original products intact still in the bottles or packages. It is worth visiting Matanzas for this alone. Plan a good hour or more to visit. Guides are great. Don't forget to go upstairs and look out the balcony onto the park. Great view! When you are done go see Sauto Theater, Hotel Velasco, Municipal Museum, Museo de los Bomberos, Second Plaza de Armas and its buildings, Bellamar Caves, Memorial-Museum “El Morrillo”, Museo de Arte de Matanzas, Museo Provincial (Palacio de Junco), San Severino Castle, Yumurí Valley, Cafetal La Dionisia historical plantation (look it up on Google), Cueva Saturno, Playa Corales and between 5:50 and 620PM every night in from of this museum thousands of birds arrive and sign in unison. Don't miss it. We had food and drinks at the brand new hotel next door and watched Mother Nature at her best. Nature's free concert!

Indeed worth a visit, the town it self is a very nice and interesting place to stay and visit. The museum is really nice to visit and know the pharmacy how it was in the past . The ticket is 6 CUC per person .

In one word: Amazing! Absolutely need to visit this place if you are in Matanzas. Well preserved pharmacy with very competent staff to show you around. Beautiful tools and preserved medicaments. Must visit. We also were allowed to check out the upper level, which used to be the private rooms of the pharmacy owners. Very interesting

Museum found by chance while wandering around Matanzas but worth the visit! Thanks to the guide Jorge I discovered and explored a pharmacy where time stood still: containers, stills, substances, oils, creams, medicines from all over Europe, machines to produce them, surgical instruments,… They are those preserved from the foundation at the end of the nineteenth century until its closure in 1964. A treasure chest of wonders not to be missed

Interesting museum. They tried to keep everything as it was decades ago. In this pharmacy, French and Cuban specialists developed a cure for cancer. The guide said that the effectiveness has been clinically proven. In addition to medicines and all kinds of containers for them, the devices with which the medicines were made are also presented here.

(Translated by Google) Pass the threshold and go back to the end of the 19th century. It is worth the explanation of the guide, which slowly transmits passion for this original and beautiful place. The last leg of the visit is over, where they try to sell you material in a room without any interest (Original) Pasar el umbral y retroceder a finales del siglo XIX. Vale la pena la explicación de la guía, que de forma pausada transmite pasión por este original y precioso local. Sobra el último tramo de la visita donde intentan venderte material en una habitación sin ningún interés

(Translated by Google) June 2016 Very interesting and informative museum at the Parque de la Liberdad. Cedarwood shelves by the physician Ernesto Triolet from 1882, porcelain bottles from France and old glass containers from Bohemia. (Original) Juni 2016 Sehr interessantes und informatives Museum am Parque de la liberdad. Zedernholzregale des Arztes Ernesto Triolet aus dem Jahr 1882, Porzellanfläschchen aus Frankreich und alte Glasbehälter aus Böhmen.

(Translated by Google) Impeccable. They keep this museum very tidy and clean. The story of how medicine came to Cuba is very interesting. (Original) Impecable. Mantienen este museo muy ordenado y limpio. La historia de como llegó la medicina a Cuba es muy interesante.

Great museum!

You are welcome for a low price by a lady who knows all about the history of the museum and will provide you with many details. Amazing place well worth a visit right in the center of Matanzas.

Amazing preservation and Instagram heaven.

(Translated by Google) This was the Triolet Pharmacy. It was on Milanes Street. I believe. (Original) Esta era la Farmacia Triolet.Estaba en la calle de Milanes.Creo.

(Translated by Google) Excellent Museum, this is a real treasure, it has all kinds of substances, glassware, etc. Several rooms with piano, paintings, exhibitions. I greatly thank the people of the place to my cousin Gina, who introduced us to the person in charge who guided us very kindly.

Wir waren 30 Minuten vor Ende dort! Eintritt 200 Pesos pro Person. Wir haben dort einen Nachtwächter kennengelernt, der uns auf englisch angesprochen hatte. Er hat uns freiwillig alles in der Apotheke erklärt. Auf Nachfrage hat uns dieser sogar in den oberen Stock gelassen & hat uns die Räume der Familie gezeigt. Sehr interessant!

(Translated by Google) Very nice collection of pharmacy, historical conservation. (Original) Très belle collection de pharmacie, conservation historique.

(Translated by Google) Dark but great (Original) Tenebroso pero genial

(Translated by Google) An interesting museum that very accurately reflects the life and work of a pharmacist of that time. The price for 2019 is 3 CUC per person. Separately, for 1 CUC, the 3rd floor can be shown, where the apothecary’s family itself lived and where from the balcony there is a wonderful view of the square in front of the pharmacy building. (Original) Интересный музей, который очень точно отражает жизнь и работу аптекаря того времени. Цена на 2019 г. 3 CUC за человека. Отдельно за 1 CUC могут показать 3-й этаж, где жила сама семья аптекаря и откуда с балкона открывается замечательный вид на площадь перед зданием аптеки.

The last Museum of its type, a truly unique collection of tools and books from another time, the pharmaceutical Museum is a truly stunning place like traveling in time, I recommend a lot if you visit the city is one of its wonders, the entrance is also really cheap

(Translated by Google) Magnificent pharmacy museum founded by Ernest Triolet in 1882. Everything is kept in original condition. You can admire the main reception room for customers with its woodwork and pharmacopoeia jars. The back room is just as interesting, by the presence of period books, old devices used to manufacture the drugs of the time. In the back rooms you can see some stills and ovens as well as dryers for medicinal plants. If you are lucky to speak Spanish (even a little), you will be lucky to have a lot of explanation from the museum keeper. However, you have to pay an additional 5 CUC to have the right to take pictures. It is perhaps the most interesting building to visit in this city. Do not pay attention to the general condition of the facade of the building, the interior is properly maintained (Original) Magnifique musée de la pharmacie fondée par Ernest Triolet en 1882. Tout est conservée en état d'origine. On peut admirer la pièce principale d'accueil des clients avec ses boiseries et ses pots de la pharmacopée. L'arrière salle est toute aussi intéressante, par la présence des livres d'époque, des appareils anciens permettant de fabriquer les médicaments de l'époque. Dans les salles du fond on peut voir quelques alambics et fours ainsi que des séchoirs pour des plantes médicinales. Si vous avez de la chance de parler espagnol( m^me un peu), vous aurez la chance d'avoir beaucoup d'explications de la part de la gardienne du musée. Il faut toutefois payer 5 CUC supplémentaires pour avoir le droit de faire des photos. C'est peut-être le bâtiment le plus intéressant à visiter dans cette ville. Ne pas faire attention à l'état générale de la façade du bâtiment, l'intérieur est correctement entretenu
